02/26/08 Grif.Net – Overheard in the Next Pew

The preacher was wired for sound with a lapel mike, and as he preached, he
moved briskly about the platform, jerking the mike cord as he went. Then he
moved to one side, getting wound up in the cord and nearly tripping before
jerking it again.

After several circles and jerks, a little girl in the next pew leaned toward
her mother and whispered, “If he gets loose, will he hurt us?”

Of course, I can’t say much. My grandson was visiting my church one day
when he asked, “Grandpa, do you know how you and God are alike?”

I mentally polished my halo while I replied, “No, how are we alike?”

“You’re both old,” he replied.
